There was no teleportation through the door this time, and in the blink of an eye, Lu Chu had returned to that blank and boundless room, where thirteen square screens named "Rules" were quietly floating in the air.
The space was so quiet that there was no echo. Lu Chu could clearly hear his own breathing.
He looked down at the time on the bracelet on his hand—74'59".
Sure enough, the single-player task time was increased by ten minutes, and the double-player task was increased by twenty minutes.
Before that, he saw Song Gui's wristband last more than 150 minutes. He had experienced at least a dozen rounds for Song Gui, but now it seems that there may not be so many. But that's not always the case, perhaps Song Gui once refused to choose a mission, allowing the time on the bracelet to gradually disappear.
Time passed by in the room. Lu Chu sat on the ground, squinting his eyes to rest. After some time, he heard the familiar "beep" sound, so he looked down at the bracelet on his hand, and the time really changed to " 69′59″”.
At the same time, a door appeared in front of his eyes, and the inside of the door was dark and deep, and he didn't know where it led.
Without hesitation, Lu Chu walked to the door.
After leaving the door, everything suddenly became clear. This time, the illusion is a clean street with all kinds of shops, toy stores, musical instrument stores, stationery stores, large supermarkets, clothing stores, and a Japanese grocery store at the end of the street. shop.
As Lu Chu walked and watched, he couldn't help sighing in his heart how real this illusion was.
Walking into the Japanese grocery store at the end of the street, Song Gui was sitting there eating sashimi with sake.
Lu Chu laughed: "I will enjoy it."
Song Gui turned to look at him and shouted excitedly, "Lu Xiaochu!"
"Don't call me Lu Xiaochu."
"Chu Chu!" At this time, Song Gui called Lu Chu when he first met him. At that time, Lu Chu never had time to correct him.
Lu Chu admits defeat: "It's called Lu Xiaochu."
Lu Chu sat down and ordered something to eat. While waiting, a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl came in. She looked sweet, short and cute, but she carried a huge hammer on her shoulder. , it came to Song Gui, smiled at Song Gui, and smashed it down with a hammer. Song Gui seemed to have been prepared, and dodged Lolita's attack, but the stool he was sitting on just now could not. Xin was spared and was smashed to pieces.
Being dodged from the attack, she didn't care, but shouted: "Everything is packed!"
The things were finished quickly, and she took a big push of packed food, put it on the other shoulder, and went out the door.
Lu Chu was curious: "Didn't it be a machete last time?"
Song Gui changed a chair, and said indifferently: "She often changes, machetes, sickles, axes, the bigger the better, anyway, they can't be brought into the 'game', I don't know what she is obsessed with, don't carry one on her shoulders. Something is uncomfortable."
Lu Chu's food also arrived. There was no "Japanese food" in the world he was in, so he ordered casually, and ordered corn tea for drinks.
Seeing this, Song Gui shook his head: "Why don't you have some wine?"
Lu Chudao: "I don't drink much."
Song Gui didn't force him, but raised his glass and said, "Come, let's celebrate our successful completion of the mission."
Lu Chu toasted to meet him.
The two chatted casually, and Song Gui said: "Sure enough, I didn't misread you, and I didn't hesitate when I chose your name when I entered the game."
"Do I still need to choose a teammate after clicking to enter?" Lu Chu asked.
"Wow!" Song Gui showed an exaggerated expression, "Isn't it Lu Xiaochu, did you just enter the mission that the two of us did just now without choosing me?"
Lu Chu smiled and shook his head frankly: "No, you didn't tell me that I need to choose."
Song Gui was not guilty: "It's okay, I chose you anyway. The main reason is that I forgot that we are a temporary team, and I forgot to choose a captain. Under normal circumstances, as long as one of the missions is carried out together, one person chooses the others. Teammates, if the teammates choose the same task within the specified time, all the people in the team can be transferred into the 'game'. If there is only one person in a multiplayer task, or if there are not enough people, it will not be possible to enter."
"What do you mean?" Lu Chu asked, "Does it mean that one person cannot choose a two-person or multi-person mission, and three people cannot enter a five-person mission?"
Song Gui nodded: "That's right, there must be a clear teammate designation, and you can only form a team with people within the same rules."
"'Within the same rules'," Lu Chu doubted, "This is not the first time I've heard you say this word. Are there other 'rules'?"
Mentioning this, Song Gui's expression became heavy, and after a moment of silence, he said: "Indeed."
Lu Chu showed a clear look.
Song Gui explained: "I knew this when I was on a five-person group mission with someone before. At that time, based on the idea that the more people in the mission, the more 'time' they would get, four people and I seemed to All aspects are not bad, more reliable people have chosen a multi-person mission together. The clues are very simple, and after entering, we find that it is an abandoned sanatorium. What we have to do is to fight with other people within the rules. With At the same time, we have to avoid the pursuit of a humanoid monster, within a limited time period, if no player—let’s call us players—death, we will randomly kill a person present.”
Lu Chu seemed to have thought of the scene at that time.
"You know, people under the same rules can't hurt each other. This is the biggest guarantee for us to carry out missions together, so that we won't be suspicious of our teammates. No one wants to die here, and every hour, if players don't Casualties, 'it' will randomly kill a person, so we tried our best to hunt each other's teammates, and when the time came, only two people in my team survived."
Lu Chu frowned: "Who are you with?"
"Just now you met," Song Gui said, "that bratty brat,"
Lu Chu was very surprised when he heard this. Although he could vaguely feel the murderous aura in that little girl, and Song Gui reminded him last time, he still didn't expect her to be so powerful.
Song Gui took a sip of his wine, raised his eyebrows and said, "I remember I told you that her name is Luo Qi, and she came here earlier than me, and the time on her watch is more than 500 minutes. The person who has lived the longest time. You also know this game. After one round, you can accumulate life experience that you have not lived in for more than ten years in the peaceful and prosperous age. I don’t know if she is originally infinitely powerful or came Afterwards, I gradually practiced like this, anyway, it is a ruthless character.”
Lu Chu looked at the broken table next to him, nodded and said, "I can see it."
"By the way, did I tell you?" Song Gui asked him suddenly.
Lu Chu asked: "What?"
Song Gui said: "Just take a quilt, add some clothes, or even move a folding single bed into your room. Although the things here are fake, they feel real."
Lu Chu understood what he meant in an instant: "I'll see what I want to add later."
People are probably like this. They are obviously in danger, but they still try their best to entertain themselves and enjoy life.
That's why they didn't collapse and continued to live.
The two had a meal in harmony. Song Gui suddenly asked Lu Chudao: "What are your considerations for the next game? Do you want to form a team with me?"
Lu Chu was taken aback, remembering that 7 told himself that he would choose a solo mission in the next game, so he smiled gently: "I am very excited to invite you to form a team, and I am ready to be you. But I am still a newcomer, and I am not very good in all aspects." There are many things that need to be understood slowly, and multiplayer missions are more dangerous and difficult, so I want to do a few more rounds of single-player missions to improve my abilities in all aspects, and then continue with multiplayer missions."
Song Gui raised his glass and smiled: "Of course, let's cheers to our future cooperation."
The two clinked glasses, and everyone was happy.
Lu Chu didn't perform well, Song Gui knew very well that the two of them were testing each other in the last round - testing whether the other party had the ability to be their teammate and the character worthy of entrustment. Even during this probing process, most of the time, Song Gui took a stance of watching and let Lu Chu solve the puzzle by himself.
Undoubtedly, Lu Chu's ability is extremely brilliant, with a calm mind, clear organization, and orderly thoughts, especially his psychic ability, which makes Song Gui very concerned. Of course, the most important thing is that Lu Chu's character is worthy of Song Gui's trust, making him willing to become teammates with him.
After all, under the constraints of the rules, they can't hurt each other, but they can turn a blind eye.
